Licensing and permits in Nova Scotia
Window cleaning is unlicensed in most US states and Canadian provinces; the main thing to check is general liability insurance (and workers' comp for a multi-person crew), especially for any work above the first floor.
Residential building permits in Nova Scotia are issued by the local municipality (e.g. Halifax Regional Municipality, Cape Breton Regional Municipality, or your county/district office), which reviews the work against the Provincial Building Code and local zoning; residential permits are valid for one year from issue. In Halifax, permits come from the Halifax Regional Municipality — Building & Development Permits.
Tax: There is no general exemption for home renovation/repair labor — contractor labor (plumbing, electrical, roofing, general repair) is fully taxable at 14% HST, same as materials; a 'substantial renovation' (90%+ of the interior replaced) may qualify the owner for a GST/HST New Housing Rebate on the tax paid.
Best time to book in Halifax
Spring through late summer is peak (post-winter grime, pollen, wedding/event season); book in late winter or fall shoulder season for better rates and faster scheduling. Peak demand: April, May, June, July and August. Typical job length: 1-4 hours (small to medium home); up to a full day for large homes (30+ windows) or multi-story exteriors.
DIY or pro? DIY is fine for single-story, ground-level windows with a squeegee and extension pole; hire a pro for anything above the second floor, hard-water etching, or if ladders make you nervous.
